Overall Hero Rating

How scoring works
2.60 / 10 Rank 109

Mines offer occasional opportunities, but demanding setup and weak broader results rarely justify investment.

Guild Raid 2.0 / 10

Limited hit scaling and mine usefulness make him a weak raid substitute, with no established prime specialty to strengthen his case.

Guild War 2.5 / 10

Teams featuring Cyrus clear 54.7% of Meds Up attacks across equally weighted battlefields, providing the stronger supported role.

Horde 4.5 / 10

Persistent mines and flexible ranged positioning can punish approaching waves, but limited sustain and setup needs constrain general usefulness.

Popularity 1.41 / 10

Planner records show 718 players at Gold I or higher, 57 at Diamond I or higher and 1 at Adamantine II or higher. Five equally weighted milestones determine this investment-based Popularity score.
